Chapters 25-27 Summary

In the course of filming the movie, Ralph calls Tulpen and Bogus late one night and asks if he can film them getting ready for bed. Bogus hangs up and asks Tulpen how she could ever have slept with Ralph. She does not want to talk about it, but he keeps asking her and says Ralph definitely still wants to sleep with her. The phone rings again, and Tulpen tells Bogus he doesn't make love to her enough. He goes into the bathroom and urinates for a long time. When Tulpen asks what is taking him so long, he calls, "Oh, nothing, Big," (174). Tulpen starts crying and says that at least Ralph never called her by another woman's name. Ralph calls back again, and Tulpen tells him to go ahead and come over and make the movie.
